You may change this +to a different location by editing the Makefile. Please refer to +the Makefile for an explanation of compile-time options. If you're +having trouble compiling, please take a look at the Makefile. + +UPGRADING NOTE: When upgrading from a version prior to 1.2, it should +be noted that the default installation directory for the fdupes man +page has changed from "/usr/man" to "/usr/local/man". If installing +to the default location you should delete the old man page before +proceeding. This file would be named "/usr/man/man1/fdupes.1". + +A test directory is included so that you may familiarise yourself +with the way fdupes operates. You may test the program before +installing it by issuing a command such as "./fdupes testdir" +or "./fdupes -r testdir", just to name a couple of examples. Refer +to the documentation for information on valid options. + |
